Virgil van Dijk has been warned by Netherlands boss Ronald Koeman his place in the national team squad is at risk unless he rediscovers his top form.
The Liverpool defender, like many of his team-mates at club level, has struggled to maintain consistency this season and has been exploited by opposition sides as a result.
Questions were asked ahead of last campaign regarding how the 31-year-old would fare in his first year back following his long-term lay-off caused by an ACL injury, though Van Dijk played a starring role in the Reds claiming a domestic double and reaching the Champions League final.
